OT : Why i'm paranoid. !

Has anyone here read "I Am The Cheese"? The kids in that liked to turn on people's windsheild wipers. The book said that lots of people leave their doors unlocked in church parking lots.

It's a good thing none of your various assailants were Graham Greene fans.

A quick note to Haze:
I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV, but part of what you're describing sounds like a description of OCD -- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.  This doesn't always manifest itself in things like repetitive hand washing or the classic OCD behaviours, but what you're describing -- especially the car business -- could be a form of it.  It's very easily controlled with Zanax or some other mild SSRI.  Have your doctor do a test.  Of course, I could be wrong.  
Lots of things like this are biochemical, and talk therapy won't make a dent.

Talking about mailboxes, we used to play "Mailbox Baseball". On rural roads, where I still live, we would hang out the passenger side window with a baseball bat doing about 30 miles an hour. Take a swing at a mailbox or even better, the plastic newspaper boxes. If you hit it, you got a single, if a piece came off,  you got a double, if a big chunk flew off it was a triple, and of course if you knocked it clean off it was a home run. A note to the Federals, this was years ago and the statute of limitations has run out.
